USES
Regulation valves can be:

- Installed both in new works or existing installations.

- Installed in valve chambers or buildings, in all cases with frost protection.

The use of Downstream Hydrostab Premium regulation valves makes it possible to reduce and stabilise the pressure of a
downstream network supplied by a higher pressure upstream network, irrespective of variations in the upstream pressure and
the flow rate. Thus, they make it possible to:
- Reduce and stabilise pressure on a network (regulation and configuration of multi-stage networks).

- Supply a low-service network with a high-service network.

- Assist a lower pressure network generally supplied by another service.

- By-pass reservoirs (semi-buried or in water towers).

- Balance the supply of an interconnected network with a number of resources with higher and different pressures.

ACCESSORIES AND OPTIONS

When the pressure differential generated by the reduction of the desired

pressure entails a risk of cavitation (see table on page 12), the solution is anti-
cavitation device ACD 040 (Anti Cavitation Device 0-40 bar).

APPLICATIONS
• Reduction of pressure.
• Reduction of noise.
• Reservoir filling.
• By-pass of an overpressure pump.
• Discharge with emission directly into the atmosphere.
In general, all of the applications where valves are subject to extreme differences
of pressure or conditions where the downstream pressure is low or nil.

FUNCTIONS
The effects of cavitation are devastating, particularly when using equipment
with little opening possibility or at high speeds. This device makes it possible
to extend the range of normal use of a standard hydrobloc valve to particularly
harsh operating regimes without the risk of damage.

PRINCIPLE OF THE DEVICE ACD 040

The BAYARD patented ACD 040 device (Anti-Cavitation Device 0 to 40 bar) is an
advance in the control of cavitation and high speeds.

Applying the principle of a double slotted cylinder, which has very much proved
its worth in our annular valves, the design has been optimised to accept high
pressure differences from small openings onwards, while preserving high flow
capacity at full fire.

The principle of this device is to dissipate the energy in two successive, balanced
phases. Most of the cavitation (60 to 70%) will be dissipated by passing from zone
1 to zone 2, and any cavitation is contained in zone 2. Circulation from zone 2
to zone 3 completes the reduction of pressure and high speeds, and does so
regardless of the percentage of opening.

On the basis of these two principles, cascaded dissipation and linearity on the
range of opening, device ACD 040 offers remarkable performances.
